Material examined. 1 ♂, Russia, S-Buryatia, 50°58-59’N, 106°38-40’E, 550-600 m, Chikoy valley, Novoselenginsk vill. 10 km S, sand dunes/sandy steppe, 29.v.2006 ( Nupponen ) (gen. slide 221/16, OB) ( Barcode TLMF Lep 28354) ( NUPP) ; 2 ♂, 4 ♀, [Krasnoyarskiy kraі], Minusinsk, Tagarskiy ostrov, 21–23.v.1924 (Filipjev) (gen. slides 193/08 ♂, 91/ 10♀, 250/ 15♂, 218/ 16♀, OB) ; 1 ♂, Ukraine, [Kherson region], Tchernomorskiy Nature Reserve, Ivano-Rybalchanskiy loc., 29–30.iv.1999 ( Rutjan ) (gen. slide 14/11, OB) (all ZMKU) .

Molecular data. BIN: BOLD:AEC9652 ( Russia: Buryatia), BIN: BOLD:ACL2449 ( Italy: South Tirol). A genetically variable species. The intraspecific average distance of the barcode region of the Russian population is unknown (n=1), the intraspecific average distance of the barcode region of the Italian population (BIN: BOLD: ACL2449) is 0.0 % (n=2). The minimum distance between these clusters is 1.76% (p-dist) ( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 ).

Distribution. Austria; northern Italy ( Huemer & Karsholt 2010: 150); Ukraine ( Budashkin 1987; Bidzilya & Budashkin 2003: 68); Russia: South of Krasnoyarskiy krai (Bidzilya 2002: 69), Buryatia (new record), China (Beijing). Records from China and Japan ( Huemer & Karsholt 2010: 150) should be referred to S. japonica . Records from Ukraine: Crimea ( Budashkin 1987) are parly based on misidentifications of S. mixta .

Remarks. Scrobipalpa zouhari Povolný, 1984 was described from a single male collected in the vicinity of Beijing (“Xi shan Birun shi” [= Xi shan, Biyun shi]). We did not study the holotype specimen, however the slide of the genitalia of the holotype (Zh. 5576, Povolný, remounted by OB, currently deposited in SMNK) leaves no doubt that S. zouhari Povolný, 1984 is syn. nov. of S. rebeli (Preissecker 1914) .
